HOW TO PLAY OWARE ABAPA
Players play in turns. It is mandatory to make a move. One plays by picking all seeds in any one of the houses in his/her territory and distributing them one by one in an anti-clockwise direction.
When the last seed being distributed ends in an opponent’s house and that house results in 2 or 3 seeds, the player earns a score by picking those seeds. All previous consecutive house(s) of 2 or 3 seeds in the opponent’s territory are also collected up. However, a score is not allowed if collecting the seeds will leave the opponent with no seed in his/her territory to play with.
When distributing a total of 12 or more seeds at a time, the house from which the seeds were picked is not served; it is skipped.
A game is won when a player gathers 25 or more seeds.
HOW TO PLAY OWARE ANENAM
Players play in turns. It is mandatory to make a move. One plays by picking all seeds in any one of the houses in his/her territory and distributing them one by one in an anti-clockwise direction. When the distribution ends in a non-empty house, the distribution resumes starting from that ending house. A player’s turn ends when the distribution ends in an empty house.
Each player earns a score when a house in the player's territory sums up to 4 seeds, in which case the seeds are pick out from the board. The only exception is when the distribution ends in a house and the resulting seeds become 4, in that case the player who distributed the seeds earns them.
It is not allowed to deprive your opponent of seeds. Thus, when your opponent has no seeds, you are required to make a move that will distribute some to your opponent. When there remains only eight seeds on the board, the player who captures 4 seeds out of the eight takes the remaining 4 too.
A round of play ends when all seeds on the board are captured. With the next round of play, each player fills the houses on his side using the seeds earned at the end of the previous round, starting from the right-most house. The player with more seeds acquires extra house(s) previously belonging to the opponent.
The game ends when after a round of play, one player earns all 48 seeds.
